Agent Skills 0.6.3 sharpens code review, adds two new reference checklists and an honest comparison doc, and introduces a set of guardrails that steer new-skill work away from duplication, plus a wave of community fixes and polish.
Highlights
- Deeper code review.
code-review-and-qualitygains structural-depth lenses (reduce-don't-relocate, a named Structural Remedies catalog, a file-size gate, and finding prioritization), and its severity labels now line up with the skill's own taxonomy. (#304, #302) - Two new reference checklists. An observability checklist (on-call questions, RED/USE metrics, symptom-based alerting) and a project-wide Definition of Done. (#240, #317)
- How it compares. A new
docs/comparison.mdputs agent-skills side by side with Superpowers and Matt Pocock's skills, with a link to a controlled head-to-head. (#300) - Guardrails against duplicate skills. A CONTRIBUTING pre-flight checklist, a path-scoped
.claude/rules/guardrail, a PR-overlap guideline, and validator/CI upgrades that enforce naming, description triggers, and command-description parity. (#301, #313, #325, #323, #270, #255)
Skills, commands & references
- git-workflow-and-versioning: add release and versioning guidance (semver, tags, changelog). (#334, @HMAKT99)
- spec-driven-development now delegates task mechanics to planning-and-task-breakdown. (#303, @nucliweb)
- planning: document the

Fixes & polish
- Use repo-relative script paths (drop the old
/mnt/skills/user/form). (#307, @creazyfrog) - Fix the Gemini
/shipagent path. (#306, @creazyfrog) - Explain the expected "commands/ ignored" plugin warning, and clear the underlying lint without breaking Antigravity. (#305, @creazyfrog; #273, @CollabxConstruct)
- Antigravity code-simplify reads AGENTS.md. (#288, @Dashsoap)
- Make helper scripts executable. (#289, #276, @Dashsoap)
- hooks.json path fallback for manual installs. (#269, @worldfunction4)
- Move
agents/README.mdtodocs/agents.mdto fix a custom-agent frontmatter warning. (#260, @nucliweb)
Docs & CI
